poets. but the hour was late and the
monarch, being now retired to bed, could
not be seen. Not to be wholly halked of
his purpose, Hugo left a plea, in suddenly
improvised verse. on the table, To meet
the kings eye in the morning. There

family of an idolized daughter, and a
birth. too, as well. OF these incidents

liquid, carpet, window and several others

Of these obstinate words and thus save

rhymes to such words, and occasionally,

Gen. George P. Morris, author OF

persuaded that no word rhymed with his
name. until one evening. challenging the
company to produce a rhyme for it, the
late John Brougham instantly composed
the following stanza:
Al hail to thee. thou gifted son,
The warrior poet Morris!
It's seldom that we see in one
Caesar and a Horace.
Amid the laughter that rewarded this
effusion. the poet protested in vain that
the rhyme was not absolutely perfect.

the following:

Rough storms withstood In thick greenwood,
Nor cared for door or window.
